My Weekly Journal III

Hi everyone ! So today I want to share about my easter day. I had packaging class on Saturday morning. After the class, I went home to prepared to go to church for volunteer work and Holy Saturday Mass. My little brother baptised at Holy Saturday night. The mass started at 9 PM. I have arrived for my volunteer work at 7 PM. And at exactly 9 PM the mass started. The mass finished at 11.30 PM. It was really late and I was really tired, but I still happy for my little brother though.

After the mass, I continued my volunteer work until around 1.30 AM. Then I went home immediately because I have to be there early for easter day. The next morning, I arrived at church at 6 AM. After everything prepared , we started our easter event. We ended at 12 PM, I went home and had a sleep until evening. It was really hectic but it was also really fun. That was my easter day, how about yours? Anyway, Happy Easter day !

My Weekly Journal II

Hello everyone ! I want to share my experience within this week. I'm a catholic, that's why  this week is sure a very hectic week, it's because easter day is coming. I've been volunteer some works in my church, Santa Maria de Fatima. Last Wednesday i need to went straight to the church after professional practice class. But it was really fun to meet my not-so-old-friends. We usually go to church together every week and hang out together in weekdays back then when we were high school. But because of our busy activity we can't manage to meet every week anymore. These are some of our silly self camera when we are met last Wednesday. Even it was passed midnight we still at church, did some works and told jokes to each others. It was really fun and precious. I miss them already :')

Meet my church friends ! :)

The next day was White Thursday or Maundy Thursday , is the Christian feast, or holy day, falling on the Thursday before Easter. I was going to have the mass at Atmajaya University with my friends. We decided to met up at Bendungan Hilir Busway Station at 5pm. Because of the traffic my friends were late, and I have to waited about 30 minutes.

While I was waiting, suddenly a woman came out from bus TransJakarta in panic, followed by a man screaming loudly while chasing someone. And I realised he was chasing a pickpocket. Both of the woman and the man have been picked pocket by a guy with masked on and blue shirt. I didn't see him but that was what the guy described the pickpocket guy. WOW! It was reminding me to keep my bag and be cautious.  That was my experience, I hope it will remind all of you to keep cautious with your belongings, especially in public transport. Anyway, Happy Easter eve everyone ! :)

My Weekly Journal I

Hi everyone , today I want to share my activities within this week. So this week is a HOLIDAY ! YAY ! Even though there are still many works to do, at least I can stay at home and avoid the remarkable traffic jam. Thank God. But because I have one group project for packaging class, so last Tuesday I went to UIC to pick up my group-mates, Maddy & Berta. We have decided to do a small field trip to paper factory.

We went to Pentamapan Cemerlang, one of well known paper supplier in Jakarta. After we arrived we asked for sample and start searching the best material for our packaging project. Then we decided to buy textured ivory paper and kalkir paper. After that we ordered it to the receptionist. About 15 minutes later, we were called to pay the bill. We also got some souvenir from them, It's a monthly calendar. It's really nice , It has Jakarta's buildings black & white sketches in every pages. Since we are graphic designer student, and the three of us really love drawings, the calendar's really perfect for us. It was my experience within this week, what about yours? Happy Weekend :)

The one that we bought

We got souvenir :)

YAY! Thanks Pentamapan :)

Baroque

Week 1 - 2 

Regarding to Packaging class' mid-term project, we devided into 3 groups. And my groups are Maydeline from batch 7 and Eberta from batch 9. So our lecture gave us some unfamiliar words that will be our keywords : 

• Bismuth
• Noir 
• Salamander 
• Baroque 
• Gestalt

We picked baroque as our keywords, 

The Baroque (US /bəˈroʊk/ or UK /bəˈrɒk/) 

is a period of artistic style that used exaggerated motion and clear, easily interpreted detail to produce drama, tension, exuberance, and grandeur in sculpture, painting, architecture, literature, dance, and music. The style began around 1600 in Rome, Italy and spread to most of Europe.

Week 4

For this week we picked what kind of style that we will use. we sketch our logo and illustrated. We also decided our product's name, tè.

tè .

|ti:| is italy language means tea. It also continuation of  The Èponine , which èponine means love and one of character from Le Miserables musical that took place at revolution of france time. Èponine has a one side love for Marius , but unfortunately Marius in loves with Cosettes. But Èponine didn't stop loving him and sacrifice her self by took the shoot that supposed to kill Marius. So I interpreted Eponine as everlasting love.

Èponine death

We use flowers and bird as our elements, because our concept is feminine.  And every flowers and birds have meanings and emotions. For the flowers illustration references i bought some flowers. I've tried to scan the real flowers but unfortunately the come out is not as good as i imagine. So , we decided to illustrate both the flowers and the birds.
